Clematis Cottage, School Lane, Baslow, Derbyshire, DE45 1RZ

We've stayed at this cottage on several occasions. The village is lovely and the local area has lots to do and see and we return again and again to the area. The cottage itself is very cosy, has a well equipped kitchen and an excellent bathroom. It also now has the added advantage of wifi, which is really useful. As per a previous reviewer, there was also no toilet roll provided and I don't know if the cleaning regime has changed but some of the kitchen cupboards were a bit sticky! Come prepared with some basics, however the Spar shop next door is handy, well stocked and open until 8 pm and there is also a very convenient and excellent Spar at Calver crossroads (highly recommend Charli's Chooks eggs).

One point to note is that there is now a large fan (for the air conditioning in the shop) situated directly by the front garden area. As the weather was very warm in the week we stayed, this was running at full speed from 7.30 am for a while and also generally from mid afternoon until just before the shop shut. I do find this kind of noise quite intrusive and felt unable to use the garden or have the cottage door open when it was running. A real shame as we were hoping for a quiet week to escape from noisy neighbours and a similarly noisy pool pump.

So no longer a top score from us and we will look to stay somewhere in the area but quieter next time.

We absolutely loved our stay in Clematis Cottage! For such a tiny house, it has so much room and the layout is perfect. The beds are comfortable and the bathroom is a really good size. The village is perfectly situated to be able to visit all over the Peaks, whether by foot or by car so no matter what your holiday aims are, this is the perfect place to stay.

This charming cottage ideally set in the village of Baslow for exploring the Peaks. Numerous walks from the doorstep including Chatsworth House and its grounds. Many attractions within a 30 minute drive and Sheffied only an hour away.

The cottage has been renovated to a very high standard but still maintains the charm of an old cottage. It was clean and well decorated throughout.

The kitchen was well equipped, the two bedrooms were spacious and the rolled top bath was an added luxury especially after a long walk!

The sitting room was welcoming and had a g

We have always loved the Peak District and in particular the area we stayed at. It was a very comfortable/cosy base to explore the area e.g. walks to Chatsworth and walks around Baslow, meals out as well as cooking in and visits to nearby towns eg Bakewell, Buxton

The owners, David and Christine made us feel very welcome with complimentary wine, bread and milk. They were friendly, accommodating and warm without being intrusive. Lovely hosts!

A totally relaxing and pleasant experience which we will definitely be repeating. Thank you David and Christine.

This delightful cottage lives up to the pictures. The twin beds are so comfortable, every room has been furnished with loving care - things look nice and are comfortable to use. Having the owners next door meant we could ask anything without feeling we were being a nuisance.

This is the best location you could ask for - walking distance into Chatsworth House and park, an excellent shop open all hours and nice pubs to walk to. We only used the car once during our stay. This is probably the best cottage we have ever stayed in.
